2010 P1 Registration Exercise for 2011 In-Take
-
Hi,
Is there anyone has any idea how many P1 places will be reduced due to single session, especially those popular ones such as PEI CHUN, AI TONG etc? Many thanks! -
number of vacancies will only be known closer to the registration exercise.
It will be a joint decision between the school and MOE, taking into consideration like number of likely applicants in that area, number of places the school is able to hold, etc -
Hi, tankee,
Thanks a lot for your prompt reply!
I am just concerned those going to single session school will reduce their intakes, and thus cause the balloting more intense. I think the school should have some plan about the intakes, just the information is not revealed to outsiders...

Hi all,
Finally, I have to register my son into primary school this year for 2011 intake.
I am still considering two choices - Rulang Pri and Clementi Pri. Both choices are chosen due to the fact that they are old schs of mine and husband’s. I am staying at central west, and our caregiver, my MIL is staying at Clementi thus I have been always thinking that it will be better for my son to reg into CPS as it is nearer to my MIL’s although it is a neighbourhood sch.
But earlier, I had a chat with my husband, he said if Rulang is much more popular, then get him in, since we can arrange for sch bus to fetch him. Indeed, I will love my son to get into RPS, but he will have to spend more time traveling to get to and fro sch. Although we are still considering as ‘staying in the west’ I am afraid he may feel tired.
I have to reconsider my initial plans and do a more constructive decision. In my situation, any comments on what factors should I consider? TIA. -

Dear VSCL09, the first rule of P1 Registration is to register in your alma mater, as long as it is within reasonable distance. That will take you way out of the Phase 2C madness.
If the travel time from your home to the school is under 30mins, I personally think it is ok and you have made the right decision. -
Dear VSCL09,
Phase 2C is really stressful…so I agree with ChiefKiasu that registering the child in your former school will take away that madness.
My daughter is due for P1 registration this year…I’ve got an older child within walking distance (Phase 1), but I am considering putting her in my former school which has an affiliated secondary school. It’s about 15 min drive away. Hubby is still "calculating" if there is any risk to bypass Phase 1 and get into my former school under Phase 2A2.
ChiefKiasu, could you please give me your opinion ? Thanks. -
2A2 is quite safe one.
The madness will start in 2B in some popular schools.
You can check this forums stats of balloting for past years. -

No need to calculate, janet_lee88. Like JonC says, Phase 2A2 is very safe.... Hubby is still \"calculating\" if there is any risk to bypass Phase 1 and get into my former school under Phase 2A2.
ChiefKiasu, could you please give me your opinion ? Thanks. -
ChiefKiasu:
Yes, Phase 2A(2) is confirm safe, 100% chopped & certified. Don't have to calculate until the cow come home. Anyone want to place a bet where Phase 2A(2) have balloting? The prize would be kiasupoints. :celebrate:
